okular switches to full-screen after software raise

[Axel G. Rossberg]

To reproduce the bug, open a pdf file using okular, e.g.

okular /usr/share/doc/texmf/fonts/tex-gyre/qag-test.pdf

Make sures okular is NOT in full-screen mode (I make the okular window expand horizontally and vertically, but similar problems occur without expanding)

Using a command suchas wmctrl, raise the okular window two times:

wmctrl -a 'qag-test'; wmctrl -a 'qag-test'

Expected result: okular window is simply raised
Actual result: okular window is raised and goes into full-screen mode.

The same happens if the second raise is done using ALT-TAB.

Why would one want to use 'wmctrl -a '? To switch between LaTeX source and PDF output on a small screen.

Same problem with the KDE-4.8.5 version of okular

The problem seems to have disappeared after I removed all okular configuration files in ~/.kde/share/apps/okular/ and ~/.kde/share/config/ .

... but it re-appears when closing okular in a state where the okular window is maximized. The following change in /home/axel/.kde/share/config/okularrc seems to trigger the bug:

diff ~/.kde/share/config/okularrc /tmp/

> Width 1280=1281

In the variant with "Height 800=801" and "Width 1280=1281" all works fine.
